What Is Dry Ice

Dry ice is the common name for solid carbon dioxide (CO2). It changes directly into a gas when heated rather than melting into a liquid, through a process called sublimation. Dry ice is useful for cooling and freezing applications because as it turns from solid to gas, it can extract heat from the surrounding environment.
